Great lawyer

I've been using his services since 2010. Every time I need a lawyer I go to MR. HORAN because I like the way he runs his business. I love that I don't have to go through different people before getting to him. If I have a question or something I can call the office and Brisa will forward the message ...and a few minutes later I will get a response. And what I love the most are the results. I always get the results I want. He is the best lawyer in town.

Assault

Adnan and his team helped me during a very difficult time where I made some poor decisions. He was extremely organized, informative, and responsive during the entire process. He represented me extremely well and I would highly recommend him to represent you in a court of law if you are ever in need.

You will not regret hiring him!!!

I simply CANNOT speak highly enough of Mr Horan as well as Brisa. I was referred to his law office by a friend who spoke highly of the team there, and I was not only not disappointed, I was blown away! The communication itself was second to none. They are quick to respond with every question I had.... They provided guidance as well as references and went above and beyond for two cases of mine. When my cases came to a close, the “worst case scenario” was amazing. What he was able to get me is a miracle itself. As I signed my plea agreement even the judge was blown away. Mr Horan and his team were worth every penny and they will fight for you more than any other lawyer I’ve seen. His expertise is unmatched. If you want an experienced lawyer that will fight with everything he has for you and doesn’t leave you hanging for days at a time like most, he’s the one. He will get results no other lawyer can!

Class 2 Felony in Arizona

At 19 years old, I made a very stupid decision while working a government job. I was cooperative with law enforcement and was let go the day I was caught/interviewed. I left that job, became a mother at 20 years old and completely turned my life around. Almost 2 years after my crime, when my daughter... was around 3 months old, I received my summons in the mail for court. I was being charged with a Class 2 Felony for what I did when I was 19. My whole world came crashing down. I was terrified to have my baby ripped away from me, or be separated from her and have to go to prison. I had no priors, never been suspended from school, I didn't even have any speeding tickets. A mitigated sentence for a Class 2 Felony is 3 years, I couldn't be separated from my child that long. When we met with Mr. Horan he listened to every detail of my case, he answered all of our questions, he was extremely informative, and he insisted that he would give us his best shot but that he made no promises. My first court date I was terrified and anxious, I had never been in a courtroom before. Mr. Horan took his time to explain every detail of how the court day would go, and he assured me several times that he was going to fight for me. At my arraignment the state tried to take me into custody on a $10k bond and I'd only be released with electronic monitoring. Mr. Horan got me out of that courtroom simply released to pre-trial services with no electronic monitoring. Throughout the months of my case, Mr Horan checked on how I was doing, kept me updated as soon as he got new information, and he even represented me at my court dates so I did not have to attend court. Mr. Horan put together a beautiful mitigation book for me, it included all of my health issues and childhood trauma that could play a role in my decision making. It also included several character letters that family/friends wrote for me. This book was sent to the prosecutor to attempt to lower my charges. Mr. Horan also spent a great deal of time negotiating and building a dialogue with the prosecutor assigned to my case. In the end, Mr. Horan was able to get my Class 2 Felony dropped to a Class 6 Felony, probation only with no jail or prison time. He was even able to get the name of the charge adjusted to look better, and even the state suggested no jail time. I was sentenced to 18 months probation, and only 30 hours of community service. I could not be more appreciative of Mr. Horan and his staff. Ms Brisa is the sweetest, and she was always helpful if Mr. Horan was not available. Horan Law Offices are 110% committed to taking care of their clients, and ensuring their clients are set up for success. Mr. Horan stood by me every step of my case, he even accompanied me to probation the couple times I needed to go. Mr. Horan is not just a lawyer in my eyes, he kept my child and I together when the likelihood was high that we weren't going to be. He encouraged me and kept my spirits high when I saw no hope. My mom trusted him to fight for me and keep me with my family, that is exactly what he did. Mr. Horan is an attorney that is truly doing God's work. Horan Law Offices operate with integrity and professionalism. If you want an exceptional powerhouse attorney that is going to fight for you, AD Horan is who you want to hire!
